Discover the TIPS of the Manucist Team for a Clean & Green holidays

The summer holidays are approaching and we count the days that separate us from this golden parenthesis (a). On the menu: Living at the rhythm of the sun, enjoying nature, taking care of yourself and those you love, having fun and disconnecting ... well -deserved idleness but which should not make us forget the good Clean & Green habits implemented throughout the year.

So, we adapt and adopt new reflexes good for you and good for the planet. Here is the to do list concocted by the Manucist team to be beautiful and responsible this summer:

👙Bronzer organic, it's good for corals

Red alert on solar creams! In recent years, Australia and Hawaii, among others, have highlighted the disastrous effects of the chemical components of solar creams on marine ecosystems, originally from the disappearance of coral reefs. The main culprit: oxybenzone present in solar creams, to be avoided.

How ? Favor solar protections without nano-participating and biodegradable to sunbathe without danger and bathe without hurting fish. We recommend in particular the range of SOLAR SOLAR CARES PATYKA, based on algae, extracts from Pongamia, wheat germ and aloe vera.

☀️ Sun, I love you but not too much

If you want to enjoy the beach without fear of the effects of the sun on your skin, the other alternative is the timeless and always chic straw hat on board. "The best anti-wrinkle formula" according to Gaëlle, CEO of Manucist, who, to avoid exposing her face, never separates from his model Capri of Lorna Murray All in cotton and natural fibers.

🌱Green & Clean Everywhere

Before leaving, we pay attention to what we put in our toiletry bag:

👉 We give priority to beauty products with a maximum of natural ingredients, vegan and cruelty-free. Gaëlle Tips: the Weleda Skin Food Balm As a post-sun, a must have made up of extracts from wild thought, calendula and chamomile.

👉We embark on the hunt for plastic packaging and we favor recyclable glass containers or eco-reloads. We like: the Pack Duo de la Savonnerie Ciment which combines solid soap and shampoo, for a soft treatment based on citrus and white tea.

👜Never without my gourd and my tote bag

Each year, more than 8 million tonnes of plastic are found in the oceans. That can not continue ! It is urgent to reduce the use of daily plastic. To go to the beach or for a picnic in the countryside, replace the plastic water bottles with reusable and insulated gourdes.

Pack sandwiches and snacks in paper bags and place all your small things in pretty reusable tote bags rather than in plastic bags that risk flying to the first gale. And do not hesitate to take an extra tote to store your waste because ...

🐚Leave no trace

We don't leave any trace behind you! This means that you have all the waste that has been produced with you, including butts, and we leave the places as it has been found.

And if on the way, the desire takes you to pick up a pretty pebble, shells or a piece of wood, you eat out your brake. In an ecosystem, the slightest element has a role to play. By removing it from the circuit, you unbalance the natural order of this small world. Instead, we rather collect abandoned waste, especially plastics, nature will be forever grateful to you.

♻️ Trier even on vacation

Finally, do not forget to continue sorting your waste and recycling what can be by throwing in the bins provided for this purpose. It’s important and every gesture counts!

We wish you to spend a very good vacation, fun, love & green 🌿
